Ongoing archaeological work is being carried out at the rear of the Guardhouse by the Exeter Archaeology Unit. Brixham Museum volunteers are assisting with the sifting through the spoil to look for items of historical interest.
A JCB and mini digger are working on the site, under the control of the archaeologists.
Some items of interest have been found including, the corner outline of the Hospital building which has been uncovered and a cobbled path that surrounds the hospital building.
A drainage culvert leaves the building and appears to connect the tunnel systems beneath this area. A further outline of another wall has been found.
Further investigations will be carried out over the next few days, prior to building work commencing on the new cafe in the Spring.
